The Deputy should note that my Department does not hold class size information according to postal districts and that such information is held according to pupils' standards, for example, junior infants to sixth class, rather than according to pupils' ages. Accordingly, the information requested by the Deputy is not readily available in my Department. If the Deputy would like information on class sizes and standards in particular schools, I would be happy to provide it.
